Hyundai has indicated its commitment to continue in the World Rally Championship at least until the end of 2026, despite previous uncertainties about its future.
There were concerns about the Rally1 category potentially being replaced by Rally2 if Hyundai were to leave at the end of the season.
While Hyundai is not fully satisfied with the 2027 WRC regulations, they remain optimistic about their WRC program continuing through 2026.
The decision about Hyundai’s involvement in 2027 is still pending, as the current regulations may not align with their objectives.
Hyundai has not yet started developing a car for the 2027 season, as they believe the regulations do not allow manufacturers to showcase relevant technology.
Overall, Hyundai’s stance reflects a desire to promote cars and technology, connectivity, and alternative powertrains in the WRC.
